The thirty-five year-old Hu two evenings ago, went to a friend’s place, as he was going up the stairs, a man with a gun came towards him, they got into a verbal altercation, in a discussion of debts owed, as Hu turned to leave, as he was headed upstairs, the man fired off two shots at him, his friend heard the shots from the fourth floor, came downstairs to check, found Hu lying in the stairways, rushed him to the hospital, but he’d still died, the police already zoomed in on the suspect, they’re chasing him right now.
Based off of understanding, Hu has a complicated social network, has priors in organized crimes, after he was taken to the hospitals, over a dozen of his friends gathered around the hospital, after Hu had died, his friends left the message of “We will still be brothers in the next life”, and promised, to take care of his not-yet one-year-old child, and called out to Hu’s killer, “You had better be in hiding”.
The police investigated, the perpetrator was suspected of wanted to get Hu to pay back the little over $200,000N.T. debts, he’d ridden from Sanchong where he’d lived, toward Hu’s friend’s place, where he hung out regularly with and ambushed, for Hu to come; five minutes later, as Hu arrived to his friends, the man shot him, then, flagged down a cab, and made his get away, but, the cab only took him about two hundred meters, then, he got out, walked, hid out in the alleys, then, left.
Hu’s friends said, back then, they’d heard two shots, and as they’d gone downstairs to check, Hu was already, lying in a pool of blood, one of his friends carried him up, took him to the hospital, and the rest of his friends went after the suspect, but the man had already gotten away.
Yesterday morn, the police examined Hu’s body, believed, that the bullet had, entered him from the left side of his abdomen, and exited from his right hip, suspected, that he was going up the stairs, as he was shot at, they’d found two bullets at the scene, but the other shot didn’t hit Hu.
The police reviewed the surveillance tapes, and found that the man had flagged down a cab in his Sanchong residence, and found out who he is, and asked the Shihlin’s District Attorney’s office for an arrest warrant, but the man was not at home, they’re still currently, in pursuit of the man right now.
So, this murder occurred, over some debts, and, that still just shows you, how little people can kill for, and, money AND love are still two major causes of murders.
